Analysis:
The first half of Anando Brahma starts on a slow note and looks prolonged as the prominent characters have been introduced in a detailed way. The film starts off with a twist however it dips down for the next half an hour. The interval episodes have been shot well and makes the film interesting. On the whole the first half of Anando Brahma manages to fall down and bounce back.
Anando Brahma has a stupendous second half and it has been hilarious throughout. The levels of entertainment and the performances by the lead actors take the film to the next level. It is during the pre-climax the film turns interesting again however the climax of Anando Brahma looks completely outdated. On the whole the second half of Anando Brahma has been completely impressive if one ignores the climax.

It elevated some of the episodes well. The cinematography follows the film’s mood and the production values of Anando Brahma have been grand. Mahi V Raghav managed to impress the audience with Anando Brahma.
